Sony DAV-HDX587WC User Guide

• When you turn the system off while “S-AIR STBY” 

is set to “STBY ON,” “S-AIR” flashes (when sound 
transmission between the unit and S-AIR receiver is 
not established), or lights up (when sound 
transmission between the unit and S-AIR receiver is 
established) in the front panel display.

It is easy to set the same ID for the unit and an 
S-AIR sub unit, such as a surround amplifier or 
S-AIR receiver, to establish sound transmission. 
However, neighbors may also receive your 
system’s sound if IDs are the same, or you may 
receive sound from neighbors. To prevent this, 
you can identify the unit with a specific S-AIR 
sub unit by performing the pairing operation.

x Before pairing

Sound transmission is established by ID 
(example).

x After pairing

Sound transmission is established between the 
paired unit and S-AIR sub unit(s) only.

• Remove headphones from the surround 

amplifier (if connected).

• To set the ID of the unit, see “To set the ID 

of the unit” (page 67).

• To set the ID of the S-AIR receiver, refer 

to the operating instructions of the S-AIR 
receiver.

• To set the ID of the surround amplifier, 

refer to the operating instructions of the 
surround amplifier.

X/x repeatedly until “PAIRING” 

c.

The unit starts pairing and “SEARCH”
